• 17:3617:36, 22 August 2012 diff hist +9‎ Voiceless velar plosive ‎ Corno (unlike cornos, horns or just forehead) in Brazil has the primary sense of "cuckold" i.e. a husband in a marriage where the woman is unfaithful. Chifres would be animal horns, but "por chifres" still connotes cheating.

• 21:3321:33, 21 August 2012 diff hist +86‎ Voiced dental, alveolar and postalveolar trills ‎ Why not mention that it is not in coda? The only areas of Brazil where it is present have either a flap or an approximant as coda, never a fricative (and nowhere except some speakers in Rio [with strong uvular pronunciation] have a trill).
• 19:0219:02, 21 August 2012 diff hist +216‎ Voiced dental, alveolar and postalveolar trills ‎ Seemingly incorrect Asturian transcription. Actually in Portuguese the fricative can be allophone with the tap because of Brazil and non-natives speaking basilects and mesolects, but the same doesn't happen with the trill.

As you undid only that of Turkish for 2 times (futile use of Wikipedia server space!), I put it again.

• 15:0215:02, 20 August 2012 diff hist +68‎ Azalea ‎ Never, ever, saw an azalea in spring in Brazil. It is a winter plant here, sometimes one can see it in autumn, but never spring.

• 03:5903:59, 14 August 2012 diff hist +4,232‎ Portuguese language ‎ Added IPA. Just the terms don't help as Portuguese phonology is complex in a way that most can't imagine, and varies by regional and social differences in a way that they would imagine even less.

• 22:5222:52, 11 August 2012 diff hist +1‎ Cork (city) ‎ A native speaker should indicate velarized or palatalized pronunciation in the IPA transcription. You have to just add a little gamma or a little jay to the side of the intended letter. :P
